Howdy Texas!
Welcome to the the TMB-where you quickly become FAMILY-like it or not. I don't know of anyone near your area, right off the top of my head, but we have certainly been known to take road trips. Miles mean nothing to us.
I'm Gina, AKA Nurse Diva, 9 years post RNY. Live in the DFW area. Have lost 170 lbs and struggle with this journey daily, as most of us do, I dare say.
I look forward to you posting, so we can all get to know you better!
